FWIW: trying to use the nav in my Focus Electric or my wife's Rogue is almost impossible. Not nearly as fast or easy as just using my phone. I like having the map available while driving because of the bigger screen, but for routing or trying to find a particular place I always use my phone.

In my view, any radio controls on the right side of the steering wheel are duplicates, because they still require the use of your right hand. Does that help?

It's kind of amazing to me that no one even sees the issue in the first place. But that's sort of the reason I started the thread.

Having the controls on the wheel is good - no doubt about that. I'm saying, why not put them in a place that doesn't duplicate the function? If on the left, one can use either hand to manipulate the radio. For instance, one could pick up/hold a drink and still change the station.

Radio controls on the radio. Check. Already there. Extra set of controls right next to first set? Not necessary. Basically, if my right hand is doing anything at all (god forbid someone not HAVE a right hand) the options for radio controls are limited to reaching across the steering wheel...

I currently drive a Ford Focus Electric. Previous cars were Hondas. One of the first things I noticed (read aggravated me) was that the steering wheel controls are on the wrong sides! Radio controls on the right, Cruise Control on the left. I see the Bolt has a similar left/right configuration...
